    Battery life Model S 75D

    I think you have to allocate more than a "few miles" for the use of climate controls (heating and defogging).

    Model X Plaid - can I not open or close doors via the Tesla app?

    I think the driver's door will close when you are seated in the driver's seat and you depress the brake pedal. I'm not sure about any of the other doors.

    2023 Model 3SR 1000 mile review

    Just a thought concerning concerning the cruise control speed fluctuations, is it possible that the car is responding to changes in posted speed limits ? My 2018 Tesla Model 3 Dual Motor does this, but I have Full Self Driving, and I'm honestly not sure if it would happen in a Tesla not so...

    New Model 3 keeps steering/pulling towards right

    Possibly a sticky brake caliper ? Uneven air pressure in the tires( which you can check yourself) ?

    Slow and stuttery after update

    I own a 2018 Model 3 Long Range on FSD Beta that is currently on 2023.7.20. I don't know if this is related to your observations, but if I set the energy graph to "consumption" and "30 miles", the watt hours per mile displayed is way too high, often in the 350-400 range. Fortunately ,there has...

    What knowledge do we have about best tires for range efficiency and low road noise?

    For my Tesla Model 3, I purchased the Pirelli PZero All Season Plus Elect to replace the all season OEM Continentals.I've driven about 6500 miles on them, and in general, I'd say they're slightly better than the Continentals in pretty much every way. Noise is subjectively slightly reduced, ride...

    HV Battery failure! 2014 S85 with 43,000 miles, single owner car

    You might want to try Electrified Garage (www.electrifiedgarage.com) 603-665-0020 as well. I believe both they and 057 Technology offer remanufactured packs ( Maybe Tesla does too?). Gruber Motor Company is fairly close to you, they're located in Arizona 623-433-8500, but I hear they currently...

    The owner's manual states that it is an "identifier that is always illuminated to indicate that the right scroll wheel can be used with cruise control".

    Why is the 12volt Battery Needed?

    @ Resist....There is an article on teslatap.com entitled "12 volt battery compendium" that might answer your question.

    anyone try the new pirelli ev tires?

    If you're referring to the Pirelli PZero All Season Elect, I had a set installed about a week ago. I have a 2018 Model 3 Dual Motor with 19 inch wheels and the Pirellis replaced the OEM Continental Tires (235/40R19). I've only driven about 90 miles on them, but I can give you my initial...

    Any first hand experience with Tesla trade values with a low milage Tesla with extra purchased via the app?

    You are correct that Tesla will simply remove FSD , and probably acceleration boost as well, if you trade a vehicle in to them. I'm not sure why FSD would not transfer to a third party dealer...are you sure about that ?

    Where did tire pressure go? V11 Model 3

    MG Miller.....I believe the TPMS readings will not read out until you've driven a short distance ( 0.1-0.2 miles is usually enough). If you're checking the TPMS while the car is parked, you will see only dashes as you've described ( unless you just recently completed a drive, in which case the...

    Car could not call 911

    @_Redshift_ I noticed that both your Teslas have extensive noise insulation added. Do you have any specific product recommendations to reduce noise in the Model 3 ? How effective have the modifications been in your opinion ?

    This new UI sucks

    Voice commands can help as well, at least for some things. Of course, if you're driving with the windows open they're of little use

    This new UI sucks

    The compass (map direction) on my Model 3 is always visible on the 15 inch screen, you may just need to adjust the map settings. That said, I thought it was interesting that the app for Tesla theater, toy box, Netflix etc is present at the bottom of the screen yet none of those games or...

    Customization of every little detail of exterior

    I don't think Tesla offers much in the way of customization.For example, there is no option to delete the Model X logo that I'm aware of, you would have to remove it yourself or have someone do it .The window trim is now black, it used to be chrome, but there is currently no option for chrome...

    2021 model 3 Red Paint different ? [no- vehicle in question is wrapped]

    Is it possible that what you saw on the vehicle was a vinyl wrap rather than paint ? Tesla did offer a Signature Red many years ago, but I thought it was only applied to the Model S.

    Anyone using Hulu? Keep getting error code

    I'm not sure if this is germane to the conversation, but.......a few months ago, I switched my home Internet (WiFi) provider from Frontier to T-Mobile.After I made the switch, I was unable to view HULU on my home TV. A call to HULU confirmed that HULU requires a HOME internet connection, and...

    Help needed on buying used 2019 S

    If you were purchasing the car from Tesla, they would remove EAP or FSD prior to putting the car on the market. But with a non-Tesla seller, I don't think that would occur. Tesla has removed EAP/FSD on a small number of cars that were sold by non-Tesla dealers, but that was because those...

    Did you try the emergency door release, located just forward of the power window switches on both front doors ?
